He will hear but will he listen?

There is quite a bit of news coverage today about Captain Codpiece's plans to "hear" the concerns of the military about the situation in Iraq. I thought that to be a rather odd choice of words so I did a bit of research.

A Google news search for Bush+military+concerns+HEAR yields 578 results. In contrast a Google news search for bush+military+concerns+LISTEN yeilds only 86 results most of which are not about Iraq.

Just a coincidence or are they trying to manage our already incredibly low expectations?
